Chapter 1427: Consecutive Slaps in the Face
Long Chen rushed away, dodging Peng Wansheng’s attacks. However, Long Chen was shocked by his opponent’s speed. He was truly worthy of being a descendant of the Golden Peng. His speed was incomparably fast.
The movement art Long Chen was using was one of the lightning techniques he had seen the lightning expert in the Ancient Battlefield use. Lei Long had comprehended it and taught it to him.
His speed was now much greater than before, but he still couldn’t compare to Peng Wansheng.
Although Long Chen’s speed was one level lower than Peng Wansheng’s, he was much nimbler and that allowed him to dodge Peng Wansheng’s attacks. Due to his own high speed, Peng Wansheng wasn’t able to control the change of pace perfectly.
“Cowardly human, as soon as you run into experts, you can only flee like a rabbit!” sneered Peng Wansheng.
Long Chen ignored him, and only once he was far enough did he finally stop. Peng Wansheng was rus.h.i.+ng straight toward him, so Long Chen turned around, dodging Peng Wansheng’s claw and slapping him in the face.
Pow!
His slap came without any warning and didn’t contain any killing intent. His movements flowed naturally, and Peng Wansheng was once more struck.
“It’s been a while since I’ve done this. My hand feels a bit out of practice, and it’s not as clean as before. This is why I have to keep training. Once you reach such a high level, you have to keep training every day. Missing a day takes ten days to make up for.” Long Chen looked at his own hand and sighed emotionally.
He had truly regressed. Before, when he encountered people in the same realm, he didn’t have to prepare at all to slap them. If he raised his hand, it was inevitable that they would be slapped. No one could dodge.
However, now he couldn’t. He needed to prepare a foundation for his slap before he used it. That made him sigh.
“Heavens, am I dreaming?!”
The ancient race experts weren’t paying that much attention to Chu Yao and Sha Guangyan’s fight. They were focused on Long Chen and Peng Wansheng.
Just before this, they had seen Peng Wansheng mightily chasing down Long Chen, while Long Chen could only dodge. But in an instant, Peng Wansheng was struck by his slap. The sound was so loud that even thousands of miles away, they heard it clearly. It was absolutely resounding.
It felt like two people had been playing tag, then the person running suddenly said he didn’t want to play anymore, slapped the chaser in the face, and told him to scram.
This was completely different from the grand battle they had expected. They were unable to accept this. Peng Wansheng was one of the ancient races’ top experts, someone above the level of a rank nine Celestial. Yet, he had been slapped in the face consecutively. Had the world gone insane?
“You’re lucky, or the person being slapped would be you,” said Chu Yao to Sha Guangyan.
“Bulls.h.i.+t. Long Chen’s trash, human waste, and sc.u.m. He’ll definitely be killed today. You should…” Sha Guangyan suddenly burst into loud curses, making everyone jump in shock. They didn’t know why Sha Guangyan would explode in fury.
Chu Yao smiled faintly. Having reunited with Long Chen, very few things could make her angry now.
“Only sc.u.m would use sc.u.mmy moves.” Chu Yao shook her head.
At that moment, a spear appeared and shot at her from behind. It happened so suddenly that it caught everyone off guard.
The spear pierced Chu Yao’s body, but there was no blood. Chu Yao slowly faded, and the spear dissolved into sand.
Suddenly, a shadow covered the earth as countless vines soared into the sky. “Thorn Prison!”
Th.o.r.n.y vines covered heaven and earth, binding around Sha Guangyan. A sharp light came from the thorns, giving others chills. It felt like just looking at those thorns was giving them pain.
Upon seeing the th.o.r.n.y vines binding Sha Guangyan, all their hearts shook. Being caught in these vines was a form of torture.
“Sand Armor!”
BOOM!
The vines exploded, and Sha Guangyan flew out.
However, as he flew out, people saw his armor covered in holes. Blood slowly dripped out of those holes.
“Heavens, how sharp are those thorns?! Sha Guangyan’s sand armor is comparable to an Ancestral item!” cried out an ancient family expert familiar with Sha Guangyan.
Their battle looked very calm. There weren’t huge explosions that changed the color of heaven and earth. But during this calm battle, life or death could be determined in an instant.
